Taming of the Shrew

Subtlety in Film

*Chef’s Kiss.*

This is one of those perfect films; a relic from a different time. And because it is a film, and not just a stage play, nuances can be expressed that wouldn’t be picked up just because of the difference in mediums. The way Petruchio and Katerina look at each other at multiple points in the film, for example. Thus the film turns a delightful comedy into the attempt of brutes to civilize each other.
